Small hooks

Hello All

I have been told by a regular who fishes where I do that I have to use small size 2 coarse fishing hooks for flounder because if I use big baits they will just suck at the end of the bait and not get hooked, do any of you do this? Or is it just a lie so I don't catch bigger ones?

Thanks, Kane

You can catch big fish on a size 2. Just have to be carfull landing them and dont bully them in.
